Abstract: In order to manufacture geometrically complex or hard material parts, a new kind of multi-axis electro-discharge machining (EDM) computer numerical control (CNC) system, which is based on RT-Linux platform, was presented. Dual-kernel structure of System is adopted: Linux and RT-Linux are used to realize Time-sharing tasks and Real-time tasks separately. The system is divided macroscopically into two parts: Real-time part and Time-sharing part, microcosmically into three modules: Real-time Control Module, Drive Module and CNC User Module. Through the communications among them, three modules construct the whole system. Rimed Turbine Blisk was experimentalized to validate the performance of the system. The process and the results implied that the system is Real-time, stable and reliable.

Abstract: This paper presents a new kind of multi-axis electro-discharge machining (EDM) computer numerical control (CNC) system which is based on RT-Linux platform. Binary kernel structure of EDM CNC System is proposed to handle real-time task and time-sharing task separately. The system is divided into three parts: CNC kernel module, CNC driver module and CNC user module. CNC kernel module implements CNC control function in of the software system, and implements the move control to the NC machine. CNC driver module is just as device driver level. CNC user module is user manage procedure. The experiment of rimed turbine blisk validates the performance of the system. The performance implied that the system is real-time, stable and reliable.
